U.S. Naval War College is a dynamic institution with programs, events, and faculty contributions that are relevant and of interest from the local to the national level.
Starting now and continuing at least through the end of my time here at the U.S. Naval War College, I’d like to regularly highlight someone or something that’s caught my attention over the previous couple of weeks. It might be a person – student, faculty or staff – who deserves recognition, or it might be an occasion I want to draw more attention to.
